1 comments about The Classic Audio Collection: The House At Pooh Corner And Now We Are Six [Spoken Word].

1. --------------After a twenty year self -exile from England, living in a California patch, I stumbled across an Eeyore, who being as miserable as me, asked me to hold his tail while he took me into the land of Pooh. Raised in England during World War 2, I was too pre-occupied with other things to have learnt about Pooh...much to my chagrin.

   However from the moment Peter opened his mouth, the memories of England came flooding back, and I too realized that Pooh resembled me in many embarrasing ways. Not only did I reconize myself in Pooh, others many many others world wide have too.. ..if we could all be as innocent....

   Entering my second childhood in Southern California was indeed a blessing....and we are double blessed that Disney could not BUY Mr.Dennis..... thank you Peter.

5 comments about Ultimate Kids Song Collection: 101 Favorite Sing-A-Longs.

1. I read all the great reviews for this CD and bought it. I HATE it! I can not stand to listen to the children on the CD singing off tune. The quality of the singing is so poor. The CD does have many familiar songs (I didn't listen to all 4 disks, I gave up after 3) but I just can't bear this one. My toddler didn't seem so fond of this collection either. I laid all of his CD's out for him, and he has not once chosen to listen to this one after I initially played it for him. He does have many other favorites though. This one really is torture if you care for good music at all.



2. Our 23 month old daughter LOVES this set! As soon as she gets into the car seat, she says, "Play my music?!" She bobs her head happily and claps along joyfully. She really enjoys the animal sound effects and the children's voices. She has the first cd memorized already and enjoys singing along to the different songs.
   
   Some parents may find some of the songs annoying, as some of the arrangements may not be as they remember. I tend to skip over some of the "original" songs (playing w/matches, strangers), just because I think they sound too fun for such serious issues.
   
   Overall, this is a good purchase for your child. It brings out the kid in all of us!



3. Since I became a new mom, I had bought several CDs of children's songs for my baby. However, most of them are [weak]. So I didn't expect too much from this set of CDs. What a nice surprise, the Ultimate Kids Song Collection is by far my favorite as well as my 1 year old's. Baby loves it and starts bouncing whenever I play the CDs. The set contains 3 CDs with 101 songs (over 3 hours of music). This is quiet a bargain at around [$$] considering the great quality of recording. The performance by the Wonder Kids choir is superb. Also, the songs were recorded in split tracks so you can have karaoke style fun.



4. The music on Disc 3 is snappy, upbeat and a pleasure for adults and children. I am a rock-n-roll fan but this is a cool disc. My wife and I will certainly locate and buy the remaining discs in this set.



5. Please do not get me wrong. I received this collection as a gift and it is quite comprehensive. However, as an elementary school teacher and mom I have had plenty of experience with the genre. I am a firm believer that children deserve the same (or better) quality as adults do (in music and all other things).

   That said, this recording is very inferior. The recordings are of a quality that makes them unpleasant (almost downright irritating) to listen too. The nice melody, rhythm and careful arranging that goes into other recordings is missing here. The end result is considerably less enjoyable, than say a Raffi or even a Barney CD, and there is a whole lot more of it to endure.
